schestowitz | XRevan86: weird clip | Oct 13 03:17 |
schestowitz | Commie-bashing to sell chemicals? | Oct 13 03:18 |
XRevan86 | schestowitz: Just a reference to battery commercials and Reagan dealing with four USSR leaders in his term. | Oct 13 03:25 |
schestowitz | Raegan killed the US | Oct 13 03:26 |
schestowitz | it was the start of many attacks on the American population | Oct 13 03:26 |
schestowitz | and passage of wealth very fast upwards | Oct 13 03:26 |
schestowitz | in turn usurping what still reminded democracy | Oct 13 03:26 |
schestowitz | it got bought | Oct 13 03:26 |

XRevan86 | Not disputing that, just found the analogy cute. | Oct 13 03:28 |
XRevan86 | Although on a technical level it doesn't hold up :) | Oct 13 03:29 |
XRevan86 | > I'm told that gender isn't real, race isn't real | Oct 13 03:32 |
XRevan86 | I'm observing a 180° trend on hyper-focusing race. | Oct 13 03:32 |
XRevan86 | Race, a pinnacle of existence. It's some kind of race-ism. | Oct 13 03:33 |
XRevan86 | > Reminder: SSL certificates are 'free' only as long as you're willing to let the #NSA access the private part, i.e. they're worse than worthless | Oct 13 03:35 |
XRevan86 | With ACME the private part never even leaves the local device. | Oct 13 03:35 |
schestowitz | the concept of race is abstract | Oct 13 03:37 |
schestowitz | in animal kingdom we use words like species, kinds | Oct 13 03:38 |
schestowitz | and other words for taxotomy | Oct 13 03:38 |
schestowitz | classifying groups based on genetic proximity | Oct 13 03:38 |
schestowitz | or affinity/trust/kinship | Oct 13 03:38 |
XRevan86 | I consider it a loose categorisation, as precise as naming individual colours in a rainbow. | Oct 13 03:38 |
schestowitz | the idea of pretending people don't cluster around particular gene sets is wrong | Oct 13 03:38 |
schestowitz | or sexual duality with two types of reproductive systems... in all mammels | Oct 13 03:39 |
schestowitz | *mammals | Oct 13 03:39 |
schestowitz | to reject this can be another form of "denialism" | Oct 13 03:39 |
schestowitz | like covid denalism, climate deniers etc. | Oct 13 03:39 |
schestowitz | *denialism | Oct 13 03:39 |
schestowitz | XRevan86: races aren't about colour | Oct 13 03:39 |
schestowitz | it's just often a more profound thing to our visual system | Oct 13 03:40 |
schestowitz | some people who are blind might classify based on smell, shape etc. | Oct 13 03:40 |
schestowitz | but the idea that we're all identical is very Animal Farm-like | Oct 13 03:40 |
XRevan86 | schestowitz: Heh, I never even implied that. | Oct 13 03:41 |
schestowitz | I know | Oct 13 03:41 |
schestowitz | not you | Oct 13 03:41 |
schestowitz | you can cross-dress and all | Oct 13 03:41 |
schestowitz | but it would not swap a functional testicle and penis with vagina and uterus | Oct 13 03:41 |
schestowitz | just a fact of life | Oct 13 03:42 |
schestowitz | and nothing personal | Oct 13 03:42 |
schestowitz | actually, those in denial about it are regarded as extreme even within their group | Oct 13 03:42 |
schestowitz | to the point of becoming an embarrassment and liability | Oct 13 03:42 |
schestowitz | you even have "whites" who refer to themselves as blacks | Oct 13 03:43 |
schestowitz | maybe something about how they behave or how they think (identity) | Oct 13 03:43 |
schestowitz | but it's making blacks feel awkward and people raise a brow outside that cult where you choose what you are, even if it's something you cannot be | Oct 13 03:43 |
schestowitz | nationalities can be changed by virtue fo naturalisation | Oct 13 03:44 |
schestowitz | torvalds became (dual) us citizen and has strong english | Oct 13 03:44 |
XRevan86 | Except not completely. | Oct 13 03:44 |
schestowitz | but torvalds cannot convert to being african american | Oct 13 03:44 |
schestowitz | the groups that reject those simple things are a vector of provocation | Oct 13 03:45 |
XRevan86 | It's something that enriches a personality though. | Oct 13 03:45 |
schestowitz | and entrapment for people who still kind of insist on basic facts... like religious people who wheel in Trojan horses of supersitutiob | Oct 13 03:45 |
schestowitz | and then whine in anger when you told them no evidence of god exists | Oct 13 03:45 |
schestowitz | [03:45] <XRevan86> It's something that enriches a personality though. | Oct 13 03:46 |
schestowitz | cults do too | Oct 13 03:46 |
schestowitz | sort of, in the short term | Oct 13 03:46 |
schestowitz | unless you're not only conned but also exploited, see Scientology | Oct 13 03:46 |
schestowitz | you can say you're a DND dragon | Oct 13 03:46 |
schestowitz | but that's in your mind alone | Oct 13 03:46 |
MinceR | many other cults do what scientology does, just more concealed | Oct 13 03:47 |
XRevan86 | I mean, not having an original culture erased completely from a person. | Oct 13 03:47 |
MinceR | for example, instead of auditing, they have confession | Oct 13 03:47 |
schestowitz | you can say D&D dragon AND.... dragons and exist... and you're also a draft | Oct 13 03:47 |
schestowitz | good for you, but I don't accept that dragons exist and you're a dragon | Oct 13 03:47 |
XRevan86 | I don't really have an identity, so I just shrug at all that. | Oct 13 03:47 |
schestowitz | in my school we had this guy who jokingly or not said he was a cat | Oct 13 03:47 |
MinceR | instead of having you pay for courses, they have donations and tithes | Oct 13 03:47 |
schestowitz | I heard he committed suicide years later | Oct 13 03:47 |
schestowitz | MinceR: in some they have tits.. | Oct 13 03:48 |
schestowitz | and baby genitals | Oct 13 03:48 |
schestowitz | Catholicism for instance | Oct 13 03:48 |
MinceR | instead of declaring someone a Suppressive Person, they have shunning | Oct 13 03:48 |
schestowitz | apparently common in orthodoxy as well | Oct 13 03:49 |
schestowitz | maybe the analogy to religion is applicable here | Oct 13 03:49 |
schestowitz | the insistence on non-facts | Oct 13 03:49 |
schestowitz | things that are barely even debatable | Oct 13 03:49 |
MinceR | Not Even Wrong? :> | Oct 13 03:50 |
schestowitz | but are fictions defended by how "comforting" and "convenient" they can be sometimes... like "afterlife" for person in a deathbed | Oct 13 03:50 |
schestowitz | for child sex victims it's sometimes multiple personality | Oct 13 03:50 |
schestowitz | distancing the victim character inside their minds | Oct 13 03:50 |
schestowitz | a survival mechanism within a self-deluding trap | Oct 13 03:51 |
schestowitz | and then it comes tumbling down | Oct 13 03:51 |
schestowitz | and that's why it can leads to frustration and worse | Oct 13 03:51 |
MinceR | ah, comforting and convenient human extinction | Oct 13 03:52 |
schestowitz | [03:33] <XRevan86> Race, a pinnacle of existence. It's some kind of race-ism. | Oct 13 03:52 |
schestowitz | like sex-ism | Oct 13 03:52 |
schestowitz | if you define that as existence of genders | Oct 13 03:52 |
XRevan86 | schestowitz: But human psyche is more convoluted than just who has what genitals, so maybe there is something to all that. | Oct 13 03:52 |
schestowitz | that's why some women wear men's clothes and vise versa | Oct 13 03:53 |
schestowitz | that's the level of fashion, hair styles also | Oct 13 03:53 |
schestowitz | that's transient anyway, we're not born with clothes on | Oct 13 03:53 |
XRevan86 | I'm not sure how that ties into wearing makeup and skirts too. | Oct 13 03:54 |
schestowitz | those are things applied to oneself | Oct 13 03:54 |
schestowitz | a woman doesn't become a woman because she wears makeup | Oct 13 03:54 |
schestowitz | or because of high-cut bottoms | Oct 13 03:54 |
XRevan86 | But maybe it's something about acceptance, dunno | Oct 13 03:55 |
schestowitz | when the babies are delivered, unless there's a developmental issue, it's clear what gender they are | Oct 13 03:55 |
schestowitz | the transitions between genders, as I understand it, originates in edge cases | Oct 13 03:55 |
schestowitz | when you want to help the baby resolve the embryology issue | Oct 13 03:56 |
schestowitz | Today I chatted with someone about ladies who get "boob jobs" in their 50s or 60s | Oct 13 03:56 |
schestowitz | I mean, what's the point? | Oct 13 03:56 |
schestowitz | Adding weight to oneself to use up resources originally designed for people who lost a breast to cancer | Oct 13 03:57 |
schestowitz | the original purpose of that was noble | Oct 13 03:57 |
schestowitz | like restoring people's appearance after acid attacks or losing a mouth/nose to cancer | Oct 13 03:57 |
schestowitz | not it's a "lifestyle" thing | Oct 13 03:57 |
schestowitz | and the industry behind it targets rich and insecure people | Oct 13 03:58 |
schestowitz | not people with physical deformity or inability to breathe etc. (like reconstructing the inhalation canals) | Oct 13 03:58 |
XRevan86 | schestowitz: On a positive side it's very easy to tell those people apart | Oct 13 03:58 |
XRevan86 | A very particular kind of ugly. | Oct 13 03:59 |
schestowitz | (or kids born without a rectum, a clogged up one... survival risk) | Oct 13 03:59 |
schestowitz | the "boob job" (butchering) industry expanded its market | Oct 13 03:59 |
schestowitz | insecure women | Oct 13 03:59 |
schestowitz | who are shown "Playboy" types | Oct 13 03:59 |
schestowitz | or trans people | Oct 13 03:59 |
schestowitz | and people who have nothing wrong with them... but want to add some weight on their rib cage | Oct 13 04:00 |
schestowitz | so now you have massive departments of "plastic" 'surgeries' | Oct 13 04:00 |
schestowitz | attachment industries | Oct 13 04:00 |
schestowitz | and they raise expectation from everyone.. like social control media and 'instagrammed' (faked) photos do | Oct 13 04:01 |
XRevan86 | Enormous unnatural breasts, plaster all over their faces, tanning of a weird gold-ish colour, cheeks with sharp edges… | Oct 13 04:01 |
schestowitz | even having a gap in one's teeth nowadays make you look like you came right out of some jungle | Oct 13 04:01 |
schestowitz | because every kid is made to fake it with dentists and orthodontists | Oct 13 04:01 |
schestowitz | the latter use to tackle ACTUAL issues | Oct 13 04:01 |
schestowitz | like posture and chewing problems | Oct 13 04:02 |
schestowitz | now it's supposed 'aesthetics'... fitting some image that's marketed to us as "normal" or "ideal" by the same industry that says women should weight 100lb | Oct 13 04:02 |
schestowitz | *weigh | Oct 13 04:03 |
XRevan86 | Not going to look up how much that is, probably some ludicrous number like 45kg | Oct 13 04:04 |
schestowitz | even for women who are near 6ft tall | Oct 13 04:05 |
schestowitz | that's "model" weight | Oct 13 04:05 |
schestowitz | apparently borderline starvation... just puurfect | Oct 13 04:06 |
schestowitz | living on "the edge" | Oct 13 04:06 |
schestowitz | might be OK if there's no food insecurity | Oct 13 04:06 |
schestowitz | you cannot survive long on such a body... cannot keep up with combustion and circulation | Oct 13 04:06 |
schestowitz | get that "cheetah look" | Oct 13 04:06 |
XRevan86 | Hah, it actually is 45kg. | Oct 13 04:07 |
schestowitz | bulimia is typical as women age, as they cannot keep their tummy flat "like in the catalog" | Oct 13 04:07 |
schestowitz | so the only way to keep up, other than tons of exercise, if to lower the body fats | Oct 13 04:07 |
XRevan86 | schestowitz: Saves fabric probably. | Oct 13 04:07 |
schestowitz | to the point where it's dangerous to one's health | Oct 13 04:08 |
schestowitz | they don't want to nourish themselves as "society" will call them "low market value" | Oct 13 04:08 |
schestowitz | [04:07] <XRevan86> schestowitz: Saves fabric probably. | Oct 13 04:09 |
XRevan86 | schestowitz: And as a contrast there are plenty of straight up obese people. | Oct 13 04:09 |
schestowitz | those who fall for it also buy too many of the same clothing items | Oct 13 04:09 |
schestowitz | so it's still taking up lots of cotton and even wood (wardrobes) | Oct 13 04:09 |
schestowitz | 20 shoes for 2 feet | Oct 13 04:09 |
schestowitz | XRevan86: many obese people just gave up on health completely... like most smokers | Oct 13 04:10 |
schestowitz | they just use 'up' their body... like a vessel | Oct 13 04:10 |
schestowitz | (not all, there are medical conditions too) | Oct 13 04:10 |
schestowitz | (for obesity, not for needing tobacco) | Oct 13 04:10 |
XRevan86 | I wonder if there's a correlation between being overweight and having preference for soups. | Oct 13 04:20 |
XRevan86 | Soups are funny beasts in that they fill one up fairly quickly. | Oct 13 04:21 |
XRevan86 | Another feature of them is that sugar is not a common ingredient. | Oct 13 04:21 |
XRevan86 | Disclaimer: I'm not basing this conjecture on any proper science, just some layman observations. | Oct 13 04:24 |
schestowitz | you can also drink lots of water | Oct 13 04:24 |
schestowitz | it's one method of reducing appetite | Oct 13 04:24 |
schestowitz | you weigh more, only temporarily | Oct 13 04:24 |

DaemonFC[m] | Apache OpenOffice is rotting and they don't seem to mind. | Oct 13 17:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | It has pretty much no compatibility with Microsoft Office and doesn't even conform to the latest version of ODF. | Oct 13 17:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | I'd say like it or not, Microsoft Office compatibility is important. You say it doesn't support what people are already using, they just don't use it. | Oct 13 17:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | Stallman had mentioned that it was unfortunate that MP3 caught on because in 2000 there were still 17 years before the patents expired. | Oct 13 17:03 |
DaemonFC[m] | But people went ahead and used it anyway, and the patent holders made billions. | Oct 13 17:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | It's still widely used. | Oct 13 17:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | Pretty much every online music source has MP3s and nothing else. | Oct 13 17:04 |

DaemonFC[m] | They say you hang onto that and we'll let you return it someday. | Oct 13 20:45 |
schestowitz | I heard many stories from by brother today about it | Oct 13 20:45 |
schestowitz | many companies lay off without reporting it | Oct 13 20:46 |
schestowitz | and the media plays along with those lies | Oct 13 20:46 |
DaemonFC[m] | Well, that's caused me to become very careful. Like, I didn't buy a pair of shoes online from them because they won't take anything back. | Oct 13 20:46 |
schestowitz | which even insiders are shocked by... as they see the lies | Oct 13 20:46 |
DaemonFC[m] | Walmart gave a bonus, and then all the stores cut hours to get it back. | Oct 13 20:46 |
schestowitz | and how they warn staff and convince them to move to another company so that it doesn't look like layoffs | Oct 13 20:46 |
DaemonFC[m] | schestowitz: Rule #162 | Oct 13 20:47 |
DaemonFC[m] | Even in the worst of times someone turns a profit. | Oct 13 20:47 |
schestowitz | lots of bad things under pretext of covid, not just refusing returns | Oct 13 20:47 |
schestowitz | anything they ever want implemented | Oct 13 20:47 |

DaemonFC[m] | <schestowitz "so it was at the post office?"> Yeah, they turned it around and said that his name wasn't on my mailbox. They delivered everything else. I told the lady, "So go write his name on it!". Then I got ahold of the mail distribution center and had them put a redirect on it to send it back to the post office in Waukegan. | Oct 13 20:56 |
DaemonFC[m] | <schestowitz "sometimes they jerk up the chain"> I think the post office just sucks. | Oct 13 20:56 |
DaemonFC[m] | I looked at the new form I-765. Looks like the old one except that there's some extra questions for categories that don't apply to us. | Oct 13 20:56 |
DaemonFC[m] | <schestowitz "DaemonFC: sort out the apartment"> Yeah, they're not making it easy, but I have a feeling if they were going to say no I'd have heard about it by now. | Oct 13 20:57 |
DaemonFC[m] | They manage like thousands of apartments all over the Chicago area, apparently. | Oct 13 20:58 |
DaemonFC[m] | I may just have to pay the weekly rate at the hotel again and standby. | Oct 13 20:58 |
DaemonFC[m] | It costs more, but it's under the limit on my credit card that way, so at least I get some points. :P | Oct 13 20:59 |
DaemonFC[m] | Hmm, schestowitz TransUnion deleted my Kia account that had been in the bankruptcy, but I disputed it was Experian and they got rid of the late payment John made in April but validated the rest. Well, I guess that was worth something at least. | Oct 13 21:02 |
DaemonFC[m] | Maybe 1 FICO point when they update that. | Oct 13 21:02 |
*obarun (~obarun@host-115-126-165-174.fibre.nautile.nc) has joined #techrights | Oct 13 21:02 | |
DaemonFC[m] | They also agreed that the Chase Bank cards should be set to fall off in August of 2026, not November. So they fixed that. | Oct 13 21:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | That makes those accounts 3 months older and might help my score a little next time it refreshes. | Oct 13 21:04 |
DaemonFC[m] | Generally, the further towards falling off your report something bad is, the less it affects your FICO score. | Oct 13 21:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | So you get a few points here and there, and 7 years later it falls off and you get some more points back. | Oct 13 21:11 |
DaemonFC[m] | Generally, apartments want to see a 600 on your credit score, or higher. | Oct 13 21:12 |
DaemonFC[m] | They usually look at Transunion, so cleaning that score up is the most important to finding an apartment. | Oct 13 21:15 |
DaemonFC[m] | I wasn't expecting them to delete the car, so that was just gravy. Brought my score up quite a bit though even with all the other bankruptcy accounts still there. | Oct 13 21:16 |
DaemonFC[m] | The other two refused to remove it, but oh well. | Oct 13 21:16 |
DaemonFC[m] | I needed as many FICO points as I could get for the apartment search. | Oct 13 21:16 |
schestowitz | DaemonFC[m]: can you read something with me? | Oct 13 21:20 |
